    Trump said, absurdly comparing the hostages’ situation to the Holocaust, which murdered six million Jews.

    This line was speculation, he didn’t say anything about the Holocaust explicitly

    suggesting that the Nazis were known for their generosity.

    This as well

      How are we still playing devils advocate for a proven nazi? What will he have to do for you to believe he is a nazi?

      That’s a pretty fucking stupid take. What other period or event in Germany do you think he might been referring to, where some prisoners may been given “extra help” and extra food? C’mon, let’s hear it, I’m genuinely curious about your rationale here.

        Devil’s advocate, he could have been talking about people like Oscar Schindler. I don’t believe he was, and if so he phrased it in the stupidest way possible. I bet that’s how they spin it if he gets a lot of heat over this though.
